I've had that happen to a number of different types of tubes on 3 different sites. You're telling me you've never had a wasp nest in a tube which then drew raccoons to eat the larvae Jack? I'd say you'd be the exception if so.
This can be mitigated by spraying the tubes several times throughout the growing season...but that's maintenance
Nope. The only tube damage I've had so far is from a bear. I have had wasp nests in the tubes but never had raccoons eat them. Perhaps my raccoons are better fed or the coyotes are keeping the numbers down. I have had raccoon issues in one of my box blinds that was open. The took corn cobs up there to eat them. I've since closed that off.
